Gravity Forms Broken on Sites Created with Template

I'm using Gravity Forms and New Blog Templates on a Multisite. When I create a new site using a template that has a form in Gravity Forms (Gravity Forms is also Network Enabled), something goes wrong in the duplication process and it breaks Gravity Forms for that site only. Specifically, the form that existed in the template is gone, and I can't create new forms on the new site.

I went over this with Gravity Forms support and it's fixable by adding "&setup" on the end of the settings page URL (eg. http://template.multisite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=gf_settings&setup ), to force it to create tables in the database again. While that works, it's kinda a pain to do on each new site. Is there any chance you guys could update this plugin to properly duplicate the template site and keep Gravity Forms working?

I don't have any suggestions. I assumed that adding those tables would work, but hadn't tested it until last night. I needed to setup a new site then, and it worked just fine when I did it. Perhaps run the settings page link on the template to make sure that the template doesn't have the same problem, and is therefore just getting duplicated, with its problem?

Re-saved the settings on Gravity forms on the Template Site
Removed and re-added the Default to Blog Templates
Made sure I had all the Advanced Forms checked
Created new site based on template
Still have "Oops! We could not locate your form."

Ah, yeah. I'd guess it's a Multi-DB issue, partially because it works fine for me with those settings. And partially because I got a different error. You'll want one of the WPMUDev techs who're more familiar with Multi-DB (something I've never done).

Thanks for the points. Don't know how much help I've been, but I know how frustrating it can be to have problems like this and not know where to go, so I'm just trying to see what ideas I can throw out there that might help.

Here's a thought: I once added a contractor as a user to my multisite. He was only an admin on one site, but had super-admin privileges. Based on my understanding of WP Multisite, he should have been able to edit any site with his Super Admin status. However, for some reason, nothing would stick when he'd make changes on the various sites that he wasn't specifically a user of. I've not seen this again, or had any complaints from my biz partner or developer, so I'm not sure what was up. But you might try the following, if it's not already the case: add yourself as an admin on the template site. Then when creating the new site, use your email (same as in your user account) for the admin email on the new site. That way you'll be added as the admin for the new site, and possibly make whatever is affecting your user account stop blocking you.

I have no idea if this will work. Just the 2 different super-admin's acting differently reminded me of that situation we had. So it might be something to try.
